How Did Human Evolution Progress Over Time?

[Campus reveiw]

Human evolution is the result of gradual changes across a very long period.

Some major developments associated with the human lineage include:

Bipedalism → Tool use → Brain expansion → Fire → Migration → Complex communication → Symbolic culture

These developments did not occur in one simple sequence, and different hominin species had different combinations of physical and behavioral characteristics.



A seven-stage model can nevertheless provide students with a basic framework for studying human evolutionary history.

The Campus Review explains the stages, characteristics, evidence, and major milestones in an accessible format.
